Comparing FragBin with Other Note and Paste Tools

Choosing a note or paste platform means balancing speed, security, and cognitive load. Here’s how FragBin contrasts with common categories.

1. Legacy Paste Sites

Pros: huge adoption, simple. Cons: dated UI, weak privacy ergonomics, heavy ads.

2. Full Wiki / Knowledge Bases

Pros: rich structure, permissions. Cons: setup friction, overkill for transient snippets.

3. Cloud Doc Suites

Pros: collaboration, comments. Cons: slow initial load, credential overhead for one-off sharing.
